Sky Metals (ASX: SKY) Limited has announced the second batch of assay results from the resource expansion drilling programme at the Tallebung Tin Project, NSW.
Assay results for another nine RC holes have now been returned with assay results now received from a total of 14 holes from 29-hole RC programme.
The latest results include:
- TBRC084: 11m @ 0.38% tin & 69.0g/t silver from 53m
- TBRC085: 9m @ 0.40% tin & 57.1g/t silver from 63m
- TBRC083: 27m @ 0.18% tin & 20.5g/t silver from 80m, including; 4m @ 0.82% tin & 11.8g/t silver from 81m
These strong results have successfully infilled the Tallebung MRE, increasing the confidence in the resource, aiming to convert inferred resources to indicated.
The first phase of drilling at Tallebung has now been completed with 29 RC holes for a total of 5,384m drilled, and five diamond drillholes for a total of 1,015.2m drilled.
The company plans to commence the second phase drilling campaign in late July, beginning with 12 RC holes to test the 150m step out from the existing deposit.
CEO, Oliver Davies, commented, “These strong results in this latest batch continue to grow confidence in the developing tin resources at Tallebung. SKY is also looking forward to the second phase of drilling in the coming weeks to test the newly discovered high-grade tin intercepted in the southernmost drillhole from this programme. With the backdrop of the strong tin price supported by increasing demand for tin and faltering tin supply, the exciting potential for Tallebung to become a new supply of stable and ethical tin continues to grow.”
